Although these Hydra executives have not spoken yet, Russell and Gideon can tell what they are thinking at a glance.
Before they could speak, Gideon, who was sitting on Russell's left side, stood up and said first: "Everyone, don't be nervous, things are not what you think."
Although Gideon spoke, it was obvious that his words had no effect.
"Gideon, what do you mean?"
One of them, a white-haired Hydra executive who was about the same age as Gideon, said in a cold tone.
"I told you, things are not what you think!"
"I have reached an agreement with Mr. Bradley and will lead my men to join Bradley."
“In addition to me, Bakshi, who inherited most of Whitehall’s power, has also joined Mr. Bradley’s command.
Gideon continued to explain.
"Coming into his service? Gideon, are you suffering from Alzheimer's disease?"
"Pierce's branch will now be hunted by SHIELD because he provided the list to SHIELD!"
The white-haired Hydra executive continued, while raising his finger and pointing at Russell, who lived in the main seat.
When he finished speaking, other Hydra executives nodded in recognition, their faces full of distrust.
Just when Gideon was about to continue saying something, Russell waved his hand towards Gideon and motioned for him to sit down again.
After seeing Russell's actions, Gideon nodded respectfully towards him and sat down again.
When Gideon sat down, Russell looked at the white-haired Hydra executive and said unhurriedly: "I don't like being pointed at, and I don't like people showing hostility in front of me. .”
As soon as he finished speaking, his eyes flashed red.
The next second, laser-like heat rays shot out from his eyes, arriving in front of the Hydra executive like lightning.
laugh!
Without any suspense, the heat ray instantly hit the head of the Hydra executive.
The heat ray, which could easily melt steel, penetrated his head with ease, ending his life instantly.
thump!
The head of Hydra, whose head was penetrated by the heat ray, fell backwards, making a dull sound as he fell to the ground.
"Stephanie has made it very clear why I called you here, and I won't repeat it a second time."
"I'm only going to say it once now. If you are unwilling to recognize my status, then there is no need for you to continue to stay in Hydra."
Russell glanced at these Hydra executives with a calm expression.
Although these Hydra executives have considerable power and have huge connections and funds, to him, these Hydra executives are not indispensable.
With or without them, it would not affect him from being the sole master of Hydra.
"you……"
These Hydra executives never thought that Russell would start killing people without saying a word, and the person he killed was one of them.
boom!
Gunfire rang out immediately!
The bullet instantly hit a Hydra executive.
"I've said it before, I don't like people showing hostility in front of me."
The shooter was none other than Russell.
After seeing him kill another person, one of the Hydra executives, who looked to be in his early forties, said to Russell: "Mr. Bradley, you want to be the sole master of Hydra, we..."
boom!
Another gunshot!
The Hydra executive, who had no expression of hostility or anger on his face, fell down with an incredible expression.
"I'm not discussing this with you, nor am I asking for your opinion."
"This is just a notification, understand?"
Russell said calmly.
It has been a long time since he showed such unreasonable and domineering style.
When he finished speaking, the remaining Hydra executives forcibly put away the dissatisfaction on their faces and nodded to express their understanding.
But at this moment, gunfire rang out again.
Just like before, another Hydra executive lost his life.
"By the way, I forgot to tell you, I don't like guys who surrender too quickly."
The Hydra executive who was hit by him just now was the first to nod.
What on earth is he going to do?
At this time, not only the Hydra executives across the street were confused, but even Gideon, Skye and others began to be unable to understand his thoughts.
Anyone who shows hostility will be killed!
Among the people present, except for Skye who had never killed anyone, everyone else was familiar with killing people.
But why are they killed even if they surrender too quickly?
Russell knew that his approach would cause some unnecessary misunderstandings, but he still chose to do it.
To put it simply, if the punishment is unpredictable, the power is unpredictable!
Only in this way can these Hydra executives who choose to surrender under the pressure of death always remain fearful.
Otherwise, with the character of these Hydra executives, it would not take even a day.
To be precise, as long as they are allowed to leave the tent alive, they will have the idea of rebellion.
More importantly, Russell decided early on that he would not accept everyone in the orthodox Hydra.
Killing a few in advance will also facilitate the redistribution of benefits later.
The threat of death, coupled with the temptation of profit, is the complete process of subjugation.
Of course, even so, these Hydra executives would not recognize him from the bottom of their hearts, let alone give him so-called loyalty.
However, Russell didn't particularly care about this.
Not to mention that he has an inhumane plan like brainwashing in his hands. If these Hydra executives really have some inappropriate ideas, at worst, they will be killed and their subordinates will be promoted.
He could let Bakshi inherit Whitehall's position and power, and he could also let these subordinates of Hydra's top leaders inherit their positions.
With the absolute strength gap, this is not a very difficult thing, it just takes a while.
"Since you have no objections, then take your seats!"
Russell took the Colt M2000 pistol back into the system space and said to the remaining Hydra executives.
As soon as he finished speaking, these Hydra executives quickly came forward and took their seats one after another.
good!
People who can get to the top are basically not stupid.
Whether they are high-level people because of their family background or other reasons.
Since they can firmly occupy high-level positions, it is enough to prove that they are not reckless people who will fight for their lives when their brains get hot.
"You already know my purpose very well, so I won't talk nonsense to you."
"Acknowledge my status, and I can ensure your lives are safe. At least I can guarantee that you will not be imprisoned in SHIELD's prison."
"In addition, the hive that you regard as a god has died in my hands. You no longer need to imagine that he can come back alive."
Russell glanced around and said calmly.
When he finished speaking, these Hydra executives did not speak and nodded silently.
"Very good! Now that you understand the current situation, I hope you can execute the next order 100%."
"The ugly thing is ahead. If someone secretly uses tricks to fool me, don't blame me for being rude!"
After warning them, Russell began to give them orders.
More than half an hour later, the remaining five Hydra executives stood up and bowed to him, then left the tent and left the castle in their own luxury cars.
"Sir, are you really not worried about them going against the rules?"
Stephanie, who was sitting next to Gideon, asked Russell.
"Don't worry, they don't have the guts!"
"More importantly, I'm not going to give them that chance."
When giving orders to these Hydra executives, Russell used the "Absolute Order" spirit of the King's Serum to connect with the White Zetsu warriors closest to Britain, and secretly gave orders to these White Zetsu warriors.
Starting tomorrow, these five Hydra executives will be surrounded by White Jue warriors who are "unfailingly loyal" to them as "bodyguards."
Not only that, he also sent instructions to Grendel at the Atlantic Ocean Temple, asking Grendel to split several second-generation symbionts.
These second-generation symbionts will come with the White Jue warriors and eventually possess these Hydra senior officials.
The White Zetsu warriors who stay at home 24 hours a day, coupled with the second-generation symbiote possessing the body.
Under the double surveillance of one inside and one outside, if these Hydra executives can still work secretly, Russell doesn't mind giving them a chance to perform.
After giving orders to the Hydra executives, Russell had no intention of staying in this dilapidated castle.
After asking Gideon to arrange for his men to completely destroy the castle, he and Skye took the luxury car that originally belonged to Gideon to Gideon's manor in England.
Although it is not very late now, Russell has already reported to Diana, so he will not return to New York tonight.
Besides, he still had some things to deal with.
Like having a heart-to-heart with Skye, and getting some intel from Gideon's beautiful daughter Stephanie.
Skye said nothing as they made their way to the manor.
Although she didn't experience real combat today, she saw Russell who was completely different from what she imagined.
In the past, she would have definitely thought Russell was a hypocrite who was a superhero on the surface but a terrorist secretly.
But now, after seeing Russell's way of handling things with her own eyes, she had some different ideas.
Especially after hearing Russell's arrangements for those Hydra executives.
From a secular perspective, Russell is indeed not a good person.
But he's not a heinous bad guy either.
He has his own principles and bottom line.
Thinking of this, Skye unconsciously turned her head and glanced at Russell sitting next to her.
"What's wrong?"
Although Russell had his eyes closed now, he could clearly feel Skye's gaze.
"nothing!"
After hearing Russell's words, Skye quickly turned her head back, pretending to admire the night outside the car window.
Although Skye didn't say anything, as an experienced tea taster, Russell was keenly aware of Skye's changes, and the corners of his mouth raised a slight arc.
Although Skye is not too young and has rich life experience at the bottom of society, it cannot be denied that she is still a young person who cannot hide her true thoughts.
To put it simply, Skye is the kind of young man who is not very good at hiding his true thoughts.
This is also a common problem among many young people!
Although he noticed Skye's changes, Russell didn't say anything and continued to close his eyes and rest.
After driving for almost an hour, the convoy finally stopped.
Compared with the manor in Germany, the specifications of the manor in front of me are obviously one level lower.
But as an occasional manor, it's pretty good.
"You'll stay here tonight, and I'll take you back to New York tomorrow!"
After entering the manor, Russell said to Skye.
"Um!"
Skye didn't refuse and replied silently.
Later, he witnessed Russell taking Stephanie to the study on the second floor.
Although Stephanie has been brainwashed now, Russell still has some things to ask her.
In addition, he will also give Stephanie a very important task.
Monitor and balance Gideon!
Even now that Gideon has been brainwashed, Russell still doesn't trust him very much.
More importantly, Gideon was too old and didn't quite meet his hiring standards.
If Gideon hadn't been needed to stabilize the situation for the time being, Russell wouldn't have bothered to arrange for No. 3 to brainwash him.
Study room on the second floor.
When Stephanie closed the door, Russell did not use conventional questioning methods, and several octopus-like white tentacles emerged from his right hand.
The question-and-answer method was too time-consuming. He planned to directly read the information in Stephanie's mind.
Under Stephanie's gaze, the white tentacles quickly came to her and wrapped around her like an Amazon python preying on prey.
In the blink of an eye, the white tentacles completed parasitizing Stephanie.
Russell wasted no time and immediately read the information in Stephanie's mind.
Time passes little by little.
Five or six minutes later, Russell relieved the white tentacles of parasitism.
"In a few days, I will arrange a Bai Jue for you. When I am away, you will handle the Hydra affairs."
Russell said as he walked towards the reception area of the study.
"Okay, sir!"
Stephanie replied quickly.
After sitting down on the sofa in the reception area, Russell said to Stephanie: "Let Skye come over, you can leave."
Stephanie nodded, turned and left the study.
A few minutes later, Skye, wearing Zhenglian's black combat uniform, came to the study.
"What do you want from me?"
Skye was not as respectful as Stephanie, so she asked Russell as soon as she entered the study.
"Sit down and talk."
Russell pointed to the sofa opposite.
When Skye sat down with a puzzled look on his face, Russell continued: "Now that you know that your mother is Jia Ying, the leader of the Inhumans, what are your next thoughts?"
When he was at the German Manor, because there were outsiders and the hive had not yet been solved, he did not discuss this topic with Skye.
While he still had some time, he wanted to see what Skye was thinking.
"No idea."
Skye said calmly.
"Do you really have no ideas, or are you just not ready to meet Jia Ying yet, as you said during the day?"
Russell continued to ask.
"I don't know, I really don't know."
"In fact, I regret knowing that Jia Ying is my mother today."
Skye said, shaking her head.
